Facebook Page
with the same name as this site
I was made aware
of a Facebook Page with exactly the same name as this website. Please note that
the 2 sites are under separate control, so if you want to post shoot information
on EastWisconsinShotgunSports.org, please be sure to send the information to the
email listed on this site. I have no access to the Facebook messages sent to the
Facebook page created in 2015. This website was created in 2003.
2024 Site
Updates
I have been
receiving information for the 2024 shooting season. If you need to add shoots to
the calendar, please contact me.
The 2024 annual
meeting of the member clubs was held at the Campbellsport Sportsman's Club on
Jan 25, 2024 at 7:00 pm. There were 5 nominations for donations. We were able to
give each organization $200.00. Recipients were Wescot Sportsman's Club
(Beginners), Watertown Conservation Club - FFA, Maribel Sportsman's Club Youth
Trap League, North Bristol Sportsman's Club - Youth Shooting, and Horicon Rod &
Gun Club Youth Shooting Programs. Congratulations to the recipients. Our mission
is to help provide funds to organizations that support youth shooting or to
support other charitable shooting organizations. I appreciate the club
representatives who attended the meeting despite the fog and poor weather. Thank
you.
Young Hunters
Many of us are
hunters as well as trap shooters. When should we start taking our children or
grandchildren along with us? Check out the links page for an interesting article
under Miscellaneous Links titled : Young Hunters: When to get children started.
Colleges with
Trap and Skeet Programs
If you enjoy trap
or skeet shooting, are in high school, and you're planning to attend college,
you might want to consider schools that have strong trap and skeet programs.
Attached is a list that could help get you connected with a college that can
provide the major you are looking for and competitive shotgun shooting
opportunities.
Occasional
Site Outages
I
recently received a note through the mail that people were unable to access the
site. I will continue to try to monitor the site for this issue.
If anyone notes that the site is down
in the future, please email me at
webmaster@eastwisconsinshotgunsports.org
or call my cell at 920-948-1694. Thank you.

- The printed calendar is 2 pages. If your printer supports 2 sided printing, you can
still have a very useful 1 page calendar. To print only one page, use the
options on your printer dialog box.
Shooting event to support
Cancer Research
I was given some
information about an organization called Gunning For Hope. The web site is
GunningForHope.org. Check out the
organization and consider supporting them.
Thanks to all who support "Cause Shoots".
We are all faced with challenges in our lives,
but some take the form of serious health issues such as cancer, heart disease,
diabetes, etc. Many fellow shooters are directly affected by these diseases, and
other shooters rally to support them with fund raisers in the form of "Cause
Shoots", such as the cancer shoots at Berlin and Hartford and the juvenile
diabetes shoot at Eastshore. I personally want to thank all of you who support
these wonderful causes.
REMEMBER:
INTRODUCE SOMEONE TO SHOOTING. IT'S THE FUTURE OF THE SPORT
